cgroup: fix offlining child waiting in cgroup_subtree_control_write()
cgroup_subtree_control_write() waits for offline to complete child-by-child before enabling a controller; however, it has a couple bugs. * It doesn't initialize the wait_queue_t. This can lead to infinite hang on the following schedule() among other things. * It forgets to pin the child before releasing cgroup_tree_mutex and performing schedule(). The child may already be gone by the time it wakes up and invokes finish_wait(). Pin the child being waited on. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> Acked-by: Li Zefan <lizefan@huawei.com>
